May 31, 2024

Vancouver, B.C. – Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd. (TSX.V:SCZ) ("Santacruz" or "the Company”) reports its financial and operating results for the first quarter (“Q1”) of 2024. The full version of the financial statements and accompanying Management’s Discussion and Analysis (the “MD&A”) can be viewed on the Company’s website at www.santacruzsilver.com or on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Q1 2024 Highlights

   Processed 470,749 tonnes of material and produced 4,478,122 silver equivalent ounces, including:
       1,581,949 ounces of silver
       22,847 tonnes of zinc
       2,953 tonnes of lead
       256 tonnes of copper

   Cash cost per silver equivalent ounce sold of $21.19
   AISC per silver equivalent ounce sold of $24.12
   Revenue of $52,589,000
   Adjusted EBITDA of ($215,000)

Arturo Préstamo, Executive Chairman and CEO of Santacruz, commented, “Santacruz has successfully restructured its debt with Glencore, resulting in enhanced financial flexibility and a more robust balance sheet.  This strategic move has bolstered the Company´s financial position and should allow for better optimization of Santacruz’s core business activities and the pursuit of long-term growth initiatives.”

Mr. Préstamo continued, “During the first quarter, production at our Bolivian mines faced several disruptions due to various events, including national holidays, and the national population census. Caballo Blanco experienced a challenging quarter due to additional production disruptions caused by safety training and mining in areas with lower silver grades. However, the preparation of new areas is progressing well, thanks to the integration ramp. Caballo Blanco is expected to mine areas with higher silver grades in the coming months and together with less operational disruptions, the Company expects a better performance. Our AISC per silver equivalent ounces sold increased due to the decrease in silver equivalent ounce sold, with the most impact being from Caballo Blanco. However, our Zimapan mine in Mexico experienced no production variances during the quarter, with the efficiency strategies implemented in late 2023 continuing to deliver improvements.”

Selected consolidated financial and operating information for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 are presented below. All financial information is prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), and all dollar amounts are expressed in thousands of US dollars, except per unit amounts, unless otherwise indicated.

Vancouver, B.C. – Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd. (TSX.V:SCZ) (OTCQB:SCZMF) (FSE:1SZ) (“Santacruz” or the “Company”) reports its Q1 2025 production results from its Bolivar mine, Porco mine, Caballo Blanco Group of mines (“Caballo Blanco”) and the San Lucas Group which includes the Reserva Mina and the San Lucas feed sourcing business (“San Lucas”), all located in Bolivia, and the Zimapan mine located in Mexico.

Silver Production: 1,590,063 ounces
Zinc Production: 20,719 tonnes
Lead Production: 2,718 tonnes
Copper Production: 279 tonnes
Underground Development: 10,135 meters

Arturo Préstamo, Executive Chairman and CEO of Santacruz, commented, “Santacruz started 2025 with strong contributions from its Mexican operations, driven by steady production growth, solid mill throughput, and disciplined mine execution. Whilst in Bolivia, at our San Lucas ore sourcing business, our margin-based model supported profitability through flexible ore sourcing and cost flexibility, despite normal head grade variability.”

Mr. Préstamo continued, “Operations at Bolívar, Porco, and Caballo Blanco remained firmly focused on maximizing silver production and metallurgical recoveries, aligned with this year´s mine plan. Our strategic focus on silver production has proven especially beneficial, considering the favorable silver price environment, and we are reaffirming our commitment to prioritizing silver production across our portfolio of assets. Lower throughput from our Bolivian operations in Q1 reflects the typical seasonal slowdown experienced during the first quarter of the year.”
